Before the match, Lou Cheng was very sure that Liang Yifan was targeting the problem with his left shoulder. Since his injury couldn't be healed, if he didn't do so, it would be easy to give up but difficult to take advantage of, which would make people doubt the authenticity of the words "super-class".
Because of this, Lou Cheng had specially considered how to deal with this problem. He wasn't a deity like in the legends. It was impossible for him to completely heal his shoulder and eliminate the weakness. If Liang Yifan kept attacking the same spot, it was only a matter of time before he exposed his weakness and lost the match.
This was the result that both sides agreed to.
The only way was to set up a trap around this point. Before the real problem appeared, he would use a false appearance to bait his opponent and deal a heavy blow. He would either win the match directly or gain the upper hand completely.
However, Liang Yifan was also an experienced Mighty One. He would definitely be on guard against this. If Lou Cheng exposed his weakness, it was very likely that all his efforts would be in vain. He might even allow his opponent to take advantage of the situation.
Therefore, his plan was to resist with all his might and think of other ways to avoid it. After failing again and again, he would seize the fleeting opportunity to lure Liang Yifan into the trap just before the real crisis arrived. He would use this to confuse Liang Yifan and lower his opponent's vigilance to the greatest extent.
A similar idea had already formed in Lou Cheng's mind. Without thinking, he pulled his left shoulder back and took advantage of the situation to swing his leg and kick towards his opponent's knee covered in purple flames.
Liang Yifan's footwork didn't seem special, but it was smooth and natural. Facing Lou Cheng's kick, he was swept away effortlessly as if he was swept away by a rolling current. With a turn, he avoided the attack and circled to his opponent's left side. He shook his right arm and punched towards Lou Cheng's shoulder.
Bam bam bam! Bam bam bam! Lou Cheng attacked continuously in an attempt to force his opponent to retreat or mitigate his attacks aimed at his left shoulder. However, Liang Yifan was always able to dodge at the right time. He continued to attack continuously, fully demonstrating the characteristic of "dripping water can penetrate stone".
He had already mastered the seventh move of the Water Sect, Lake and Mirror Wisdom. It wasn't as good as Enemy Heart Freezing Insight when it came to stabilizing one's emotions and reflecting one's surroundings. However, it was better in terms of on-the-spot judgment and accurate consideration. It lived up to its name of "intelligence"!
Bang bang bang!
Lou Cheng's left shoulder began to ache faintly as their fists and forearms collided. He put on a good show and jumped half a step, raised his right arm to block, and punched out his left fist covered in frost. When it was blocked by Liang Yifan, he immediately used the force to pull himself back and jumped back. While he was still in the air, he suddenly moved horizontally and avoided the opponent's continuous counterattacks.
Liang Yifan's back was as smooth as water, as if he had no bones. With a slight twist, he immediately turned and chased after Lou Cheng. However, as soon as Lou Cheng's toes touched the ground, the fire force exploded again, and he made another turn, drifting diagonally.
Bang! In the state of willow catkins in the wind, he did not continue to use the last Flame Emperor to change direction. Instead, he raised his hands and pushed forward.
Waves of light blue flames gushed out from his palms, increasing his speed. Like a phantom, he shook off his opponent and pulled apart the distance between them.
Now that there was a gap, he immediately condensed a crimson fireball behind his back. It flew and bombarded the enemy like a cannonball, assuming a long-range combat posture.
Liang Yifan released his dark blue force, absorbing the surrounding water droplets and turning them into a sparkling water splash, intercepting the fireball perfectly.
Boom!
The explosion was not loud, and the light disappeared in a flash. The water vapor evaporated into white mist and filled the air.
Then, Lou Cheng entered the routine of the Nine Rotations of Five Flames. The cannonballs were shot out one after another, and three fireballs were hovering around him all the time. Some were bright purple, some were red, some were gold, some were light blue, some were white, and some were light purple, and some were white.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The fireballs were all intercepted by the dark blue "sparks" and were destroyed together. One turned into heat, and the other turned into water vapor. With the help of the Lake and Mirror Mirrored Wisdom, Liang Yifan's defense was flawless. However, in front of the special human-shaped cannon, the frequency of "firing" could not keep up. He could only defend passively and could not counterattack.
"The current battle reminds me of a shooting game …" An unknown commentator chuckled, and then said with a broad idea, "If this continues, there will be more and more water vapor, and the temperature will get higher and higher. Is this a live sauna? Don't tell me. After steaming for a while, you'll be drenched in sweat. Then, you'll jump into a cold pool. You'll feel so comfortable in the end. Yes, it's time for Lou Cheng to use his Ice Holy Light. "
At this point, he suddenly had an idea. He added, half puzzled and half guessing, "If he continues to change, he will be in a disadvantageous position.
"If this continues, Liang Yifan will be at a disadvantage. The steam in the arena will only get hotter and hotter, which means Lou Cheng is using an enhanced version of 'Inferno'. In such an environment, Lou Cheng, who can enter and leave the 'Volcano Laboratory' seven times, will definitely be like a fish in water. But Liang Yifan will have to guard the surroundings, otherwise he will be cooked, cooked …"
"He accepted the long-range combat without putting up a fight. He should have anticipated this problem. I'm afraid he has a backup plan …"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the midst of Talker's commentary, the area between the two, where Liang Yifan was, was shrouded in white mist. The airflow was "boiling", as though a large pot was placed there.
At this moment, Liang Yifan suddenly ignored the crimson ball that was roaring towards him. He didn't use force to connect with the water vapor. Instead, he put his hands in front of his chest, facing up and down. Then, he suddenly did a Tai Chi spinning motion.
Whoosh! All the water vapor in the surroundings was stirred up, forming a "sea of white mist". At the core of the "sea" was Liang Yifan, the funnel-shaped vortex he had created.
At this moment, he seemed to have become the master of the "sea of steam", the god of heaven and earth. Whoosh!
Whoosh! Liang Yifan straightened his back and pounced towards his opponent. As he swung his palms, the "sea of steam" surged towards Lou Cheng like water in reverse.
In the midst of the swirling clouds, there were scalding "tides" everywhere. Lou Cheng's crimson ball of fire disappeared silently the moment it entered, as though it was adding bricks and tiles to the enemy's strength.
Liang Yifan disappeared along with it. What appeared was the steam, which once again had the weight of water. The accumulation of more than a hundred million tons made one deeply feel the heaviness, making one's body and mind tremble.
The ninth move of the Water Sect, "Polar Fusion. Swamp of Heaven and Earth"!
This was Liang Yifan's unique version. He had deliberately held back so that Lou Cheng could "help" him complete his preparations.
This move intersected the mind with reality.
Whoosh! Lou Cheng lost sight of his opponent, leaving only the sea of white mist that engulfed the heavens and earth. It was as though he had encountered a tsunami.
He understood that this was the result of Tai Chi's mind being affected. However, he didn't dare to immediately use Force Concentration and the complete Nine Words Formula. Because Liang Yifan was hiding in the mist, he didn't know when he would launch a surprise attack. He couldn't give Liang Yifan the opportunity to strike.
With a change of mind, Lou Cheng lowered his waist, tightened his arms, clenched his fists, and punched forward diagonally. Around him, the faint purple, light blue, and blazing white flames flew out and merged into one.
He wanted to use the might of the "three flames" to resist the "tsunami" and temporarily create a peaceful zone, forcing Liang Yifan to wait.
The moment his opponent was waiting for was the moment he used the complete Nine Words Formula.
This was called not fearing exhaustion and defending indiscriminately.
Rumble!
The sea of white mist couldn't drown out the dazzling light, nor could it swallow the deafening sound. The tumbling waves of air blasted them into the sky and scattered everywhere like a giant fountain.
Once the punch was out, Lou Cheng immediately retracted his Qi and blood. He balanced and formed his Dan in his lower abdomen, allowing the dazzling stars to form the Nine Words Formula.
"Confrontation"! "Army"! "Fighting"! "Swordsman"! "Wholeness"! "Formation"! "Deference"! "Forwarding"! "Attainment"!
He suddenly pushed out his palms. His vision suddenly became clear. The steam lost its weight and no longer felt like a tsunami. Liang Yifan circled to the front of the weakened explosion waves. His fist was surrounded by a deep and heavy blue color, mixed with the endless power to connect the sky and the earth, and shot out like lightning.
Whoosh!
Using the wind and waves, Lou Cheng floated backward at high speed. His mind quickly outlined a complex visualization and his body made corresponding changes.
Bam! When Liang Yifan's fist was about to hit him, he finished his preparations. He raised his right arm, clenched his fist, and struck out with the darkness in his palm. Specks of hidden brilliance were destroyed.
"Tilting Northwest, Sinking Southeast!"
Boom!
The wind and waves stopped and the steam solidified. Other than the headache-inducing sound that drilled into one's mind, everything seemed to have been destroyed and ceased to exist.
After a brief moment of darkness, the audience saw that the white mist and waves were gone. Only a wide hole had appeared in the arena, as though a small lake had appeared out of thin air.
Lou Cheng and Liang Yifan each took a few steps back, but the latter was like a rolling stream of water. He quickly brushed past his opponent at the edge of the "lake" and launched a close-range attack, his punches never leaving the left.
Bam, bam, bam!
Lou Cheng blocked a few consecutive blows, but the Fire Force couldn't be maintained and he couldn't shake it off. The pain in his left shoulder seemed to be intensifying, and there were signs of discomfort.
Bam!
There was a slight delay in the movement of pulling his left shoulder and raising his arm. His strenuous support and difficult maintenance seemed to have finally come to an end.
PS: Correction of the mistake in the previous chapter. "Coming Rain" should be the sixth move of the Water Sect. I didn't specify the moves in the document, and they were all listed in order. But a few days ago, in a daze, I counted the Xuanwu True Sword of the Xuanwu Sect. So the sixth move became the seventh.
